    Need advice on meeting someone "half way" for a FTF deal

    i've done multiple FTF transactions here in FL, and all have gone smoothly - none at a gun range. your thinking is spot on, preferring a range, but as you've found out, its just not always feasible. Just pick somewhere well lit and populated, and don't wave it around. those before me are...

    Felon in possession of a weapon

    someone correct me if I'm wrong, but aren't some felons eligible to have their civil rights restored, i.e. gun rights? obviously after the proper petitions, paperwork, etc... regardless, if he's the sort that actually intends to murder, I can't imagine that he would be disuaded from...

    Va-alert: Urgent legislative alert! 1/20/09

    I am only taking issue with the use of "free". my point is that by passing the responsibility onto the federal government, you are passing the charge onto everyone. although you won't have to pay your $5 when you purchase a weapon, you will be paying for it in the end. who funds the federal...

    Va-alert: Urgent legislative alert! 1/20/09

    Gold Dot's have changed OAL on me!

    forgot to update this after its resolution! Speer was great about the whole thing. After a few emails and details back/forth, I returned the pack to them, and a few weeks later got a new box back. (a larger box at that! *results may vary) They were courteous throughout, and I suppose I...

    Gold Dot's have changed OAL on me!

    well, I thank you guys for the informative responses. yes, you guys are correct, these were 'used' in a Kimber 1911. I've used gold dots with success in my other weapons (9mm, .357 mag), but i've never seen this occur. I AM the sort that would just reset/recrimp them, but as of yet I have...

    Gold Dot's have changed OAL on me!

    Hello all, after unloading some Gold Dot 185 GR .45 from one of my home guns, I noticed a small problem. it seems as if a fwe of the rounds have changed their OAL! It looks like 2 or 3 out of the pack are shorter now. I am not 100% sure, but they may be the rounds that were...

    Glock mags?

    not to thread jack, but with the ban expired now, why are pre-ban magazines still so desireable? Is it simply for some sort of collector value? My post-ban high capacity magazines function 100%, am I missing out on something though?
